Cell Cycle and Cell division Flashcards

1
Q

Limits to Cell Growth

A

larger the cell becomes the more it demands a cell places on its DNA, and it has trouble moving all material across the cell membrane

Q

interphase

A

The cell spends most of its time here.
Cell grows, chromosomes are replicated, Organelles required for cell division are produced.

Q

Mitosis

A

Cell division
Has 4 phases
The process by which a single parent cell divides to make two new daughter cells, identical, replace, repair, grow organism - all cells but sex cells

Q

Metaphase

A

the second stage of cell division, the chromosomes become attached to the spindle fibers, they line up in the middle, it leaves the cell
